Summer Vacation Utah Edition

After almost 2 weeks in Canada we rented a car and drove 12 hours to spend time with my family in Utah. Julien did REALLY well until the last hour...so we busted out the suckers and he was instantly better.

A sucker and a Binky at the same time...could life get any better???

In Highland they have a splash park for kids. Julien LOVED it!

Amy's baby shower (she is due exactly 4 weeks after me...Sept 26th)

The Fam

Landon and Kyle raced on the Alpine Slide...they both flew off the track and got some major road rash

Julien rode the merry go round, airplanes, and a little roller coaster...it was his first time riding rides alone. He LOVED them, especially the airplane!

Slip n Slide

We played lots and lots of croquet

Fourth of July Fireworks

We had such a fun time with family! It was SO Hard to get back on the airplane and come home. Hopefully one day we will all live by each other.

Summer Vacation Canadian Edition

This summer we were able go back to the mainland to visit family for 3 weeks! It was so nice to be able to spend so much time with family! One of the main reasons that we went was because Breanne got married!!! She was such a beautiful bride and we are so glad that we were able to be there for it!

Julien loves "Brean" we had to keep running over and pulling him away from her so that he wasn't in all of their pics

The Wallace cabin in Montana
We spent a few days at Sterling's cabin. It was absolutely gorgeous and so relaxing!

35 Weeks

I am 35 weeks along today and I kinda feel like a ticking time bomb...I know I technically still have 5 weeks until my actual due date but it just seems so close! I am starting to get nervous that this baby is actually going to be here so soon! Everything looked good at my last dr's apt. They did an ultrasound and he is still head down so things are looking good. Now if we could only find a name for this little guy...any suggestions???

So you can't really tell from the pic but Julien was trying to give the baby snuggles...he is so cute!

Graduation

Landon graduated! He is finally done with school forever...I hope! He actually graduated in May but I just got the pics from graduation now. Landon's parents and sister Kristy were able to come visit and help us celebrate. I am so proud of Landon for working so hard and excited for our next adventure...whatever that is!

Landon's grad dinner the night before graduation

Julien was so excited for dad! He kept clapping and cheering "Yay Dad" through the whole thing.

Waiving to Dad

My eyes are shut like usual but my boys are so cute!

Julien giving Dad a lei

Congrats Landon! We love you!!!

Julien

I had such a good day with Julien yesterday! He was so happy and sweet the whole day! He listened so well and said please and thank you and gave me lots of hugs and kisses! He really is such a sweetheart! I have really been blessed to be able to stay home with him and spend everyday just hanging out together. I am excited for the new baby to come but will miss our one on one time together. One of my favorite things of the day was at dinner time...We asked Julien to say the prayer all by himself for the first time. This is how it went...
"Dear Heavenly Father, thank you for temples." Pause..."thank you for temples. Name of Jesus Christ, Amen." Haha! He is so random sometimes its funny. He got the biggest smile you could tell he was so proud of himself for saying the whole thing by himself. I can't believe how big he is getting! It is so much fun to see the crazy things he comes up with each day but sad at the same time because my little boy is getting SO big! I love you Julien!!!
